XML Question with NodeValue Property

Hi,
I have a question on XML. I have the follwing XML file...
And the following code:
The problem is when this code is executed it messages:
Microsoft Dynamics NAV
NewNodeValue1
NewSubNodeValue1
OK
What if I only want the text value for the current node, and not the current node and all it's child nodes?
I read somewhere that I am to use the property "NodeValue" for this, but I tried and it does not work. When I use print the results of NodeValue it only shows a symbol which looks like an 'r'. (I have attached a screenshot of this)
I have also lookedup the property NodeValue, and came across this code in http://www.devguru.com/technologies/xml ... Value.html
What I do not understand of this code is why did the FirstChild printed out the result "Eric"? When I would expect it to be "Alice", and for Last Child is suppose to be "Eric".

<NodeName xmlns="MyNameSpace" ID="10000"> NodeValue <NewNode xmlns=""> NewNodeValue1 <NewSubNode> NewSubNodeValue1 </NewSubNode> </NewNode> <NewNode xmlns=""> NewNodeValue2 </NewNode> <NewNode xmlns=""> NewNodeValue3 </NewNode> </NodeName>
And the following code:
IF ISCLEAR(XMLDOMDocument) THEN CREATE(XMLDOMDocument); XMLDOMDocument.load('c:\MyXML.xml'); XMLDOMMgmt.SetNormalCase(); CurrNode := XMLDOMDocument.documentElement; //------------------------------------- // message a single node... IF XMLDOMMgmt.FindNode(CurrNode, 'NewNode', CurrNode2) THEN BEGIN MESSAGE(FORMAT(CurrNode2.text)); // *** this is the code to print from NodeValue //EVALUATE(TempStr, CurrNode2.NodeValue); //MESSAGE(TempStr); END ELSE MESSAGE('Node not found!');

Code (VBScript): Set objXMLDoc = CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM") objXMLDoc.async = False objXMLDoc.load("names.xml") Set objNode = objXMLDoc.documentElement.lastChild document.write(objNode.nodeValue) Set objNode = objNode.firstChild document.write("<br>" & objNode.nodeValue) Output: null Eric

I would consider using the XML Node's Text property. This should display the clear text value of the data inside the node.0
